FRAMES

 

The project will take place in two phases: pilot project and sustainable programme.

Following the evaluation of the pilot project, the sustainable programme will be elaborated in full partnership with the participating Mapuche communities.

PILOT PROJECT

(October 2008-April 2009)

  1. • Participatory workshops for the collective analysis of the potential strategic uses of digital video, adapted to Mapuche priorities.

  2. • Interactive training workshops in the use of digital video technologies (production, filming, editing and diffusion).

  3. • Continuous technical accompaniment in the planning and implementation of community video projects.

  4. • Support for the diffusion of the digital materials produced, in Chile and internationally.


SUSTAINABLE PROGRAMME

(Possibilities to be developed: 2009 and beyond)

  1. • Development of a programme of solidary sharing and exchange between indigenous communities in Canada, in Chile and across the Americas involved in the strategic use of digital video: (1) the creation of a virtual space and (2) the coordination of international exchanges.

  2. • Creation of permanent digital production centres and a media library owned and run by the Mapuche communities.

  3. • Permanent programme of community workshops offering training in the use of digital video.

This sustainable programme could become integrated into the long-term programming of, among others, the Autonomous Mapuche School of Tranamán.
